I’ve Got the World on a String Songtext
von Duke Ellington

I′ve got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a life! What a world!
I'm in love!
I′ve got a song that I sing
I can make the rain go
Anytime I move my finger
Lucky me! Can't you see?
I'm in love!


Life is a beautiful thing
As long as I hold the string
I′d be a silly so-and-so
If I would ever let it go
Wa-da-da-da-do
I′ve got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a life! What a world!
I'm in love!
